ABC Chief talks the future of Marvel TV

Paul Lee, ABC Entertainment Group President, spoke in great detail about all of Marvel’s show’s, at the Television Critics Association recently. Throughout this event, he went through each of the shows individually and where they would be going in the upcoming season.

The first show he discussed was Agent Carter. Lee said: “We’re doing this season of Agent Carter here in Hollywood… It’s really opening it up because suddenly you have the glamour of late ‘40s Hollywood. You have Haley in that environment. [She’s] enjoying itself.”

Following this, he discussed Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Lee stated that, “S.H.I.E.L.D. itself has a really interesting next season… You probably know that Skye suddenly had super powers. She’s Inhuman and now the real thrust for next season is are you Inhuman? You’re going to seem ore characters with super powers. They’ve arced out a really fun season.”

Finally, Lee discussed the Netflix series, and how they relate to ABC. Lee claimed that, “We would [do more Marvel]… Obviously we’ll be very careful not to overpromise. Our studios make shows we do for Netflix. Daredevil is a big hit. S.H.I.E.L.D. is a very strong asset. [I’m] very bullish about Marvel and its future on the network.”

Overall, this is quite a lot of info, and more than enough to keep Marvel Zombies around the world, excited for this season of Marvel Television.

My name is James and I am a long time fan of Movies, TV and Comics. I am currently a student, wrapping up my education at Aberystwyth University. I have an undergraduate degree in film and television and I’m working on my Masters in scriptwriting.
My personal favourite comic character is the Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), and I view the film adaptation as one of the most horrifying experiences I have had in a movie theatre. As far as film and television go, I am usually willing to give any genre a try, as long as the project is well executed.
